Abstract:
This is a position paper to point out that if we control degradation appropriately, we can keep the feeling of best fit and enjoy using our products for much longer time, because it permits us to use our machines and products in the best working condition in spite of the widely and frequently changes of situations and environments. In addition, we can avoid producing too many wide variety of products. Then, we can focus our attention more to each product and we can avoid build up a complicated and high expertise demanding high mix, low volume production system, thereby reducing energy, time and cost considerably. .
